Crypto’s Liquidity Vanished? Larry David’s Take 😱💸

What to know: 🤔

By Omkar Godbole (All times ET unless I’m in a different timezone, which I’m not, but still…)

Bitcoin’s still hanging around $103,000 like a bad houseguest who won’t leave. 🤦‍♂️ Meanwhile, ZEC, ICP, and QNT are up 18%-probably because they’re the only ones with a pulse. 💃

The crypto market’s like a game of musical chairs, but the music stopped, and everyone’s just standing there awkwardly. 🪑 Wintermute calls it “self-funded mode,” which is just a fancy way of saying, “We’re all broke now.” 🥴

New money’s drying up faster than my sense of humor. Stablecoins, ETFs, DATs-all three are on life support. 💉 U.S. spot ETFs lost $1.5 billion in two weeks. That’s like losing your wallet at a casino, but the casino’s your 401(k). 😭

M2 money supply’s rising, but it’s all going to AI and infrastructure. Crypto’s like the forgotten middle child. 😢 Ray Dalio says the Fed’s “easing into a bubble,” which sounds like something I’d do with a bag of chips. 🍟

Traders, keep an eye on Bitcoin’s 50-week moving average. If it bounces, we might see new highs. If not, well, time to dust off that resume. 📈

In other news, Coinbase is begging the U.S. Treasury not to overregulate GENUIS stablecoin. Meanwhile, Lighter’s bot glitch sent HYPE to $100. 🤖 Chainlink’s now their oracle partner-because nothing says “trust” like a bot glitch. 🤷‍♂️

Dollar index is near resistance at 100.25. If it breaks out, crypto’s in for more pain. Goldman Sachs says the Supreme Court might rule against Trump’s tariffs, but don’t hold your breath for China to benefit. 🌍
